Dear Parents,

We have had an increase in students coming to school sick over the past couple of weeks. The guide attached outlines when it’s okay for students to attend school and when they should stay home to recover.

Please help us keep all of our students and staff healthy by following these guidelines. If your child has a fever, persistent cough, vomiting, diarrhea, or other concerning symptoms, it’s best to keep them home until they are feeling better and meet the return-to-school criteria.

If you’re ever unsure, don’t hesitate to reach out to the school nurse—we’re here to help!

Thank you so much for your support in keeping our school community safe and healthy.💜
